# Advanced Flight

This chapter covers how to operate in GPS-denied areas and perform offshore operations.

## Chapter Index

* [GPS Denied Operation](/tac/flight/advanced-flight/gps-denied-operations.md)
* [Offshore Operation](/tac/flight/advanced-flight/offshore-operations.md)

{% hint style="danger" %}
Advanced flight operations encompass **GPS-denied** environments, **manual flying**, and **offshore operations.** These scenarios require **skilled** **piloting** without GPS assistance and demand a deep understanding of the DeltaQuad Evo and its controls. Only experienced pilots should attempt these maneuvers, as they involve navigating without GPS, which can complicate situational awareness and precision. A deep understanding of the [**Flight** ](/tac/flight.md)chapter is essential for maintaining stability and control in challenging conditions. Always **prioritize** **safety** and preparedness in such operations.
{% endhint %}

The following parameters can be adjusted for special operations in **AMC Menu (Advanced Mode) -> Advanced ->** [**Parameters**](/tac/flight/auterion-mission-control-amc-overview/amc-menu/advanced.md#parameters).

Search for the parameter that needs to be changed.

* MPC\_MAX\_HOVER\_T

**Default:** 90 **Max:** 150

The DeltaQuad Evo's default maximum hover time is 90 seconds, but this can be extended to a maximum of 150 seconds. After the timeout, the vehicle will automatically force-land at its current location. Adjusting this value may be necessary for offshore operations.

* COM\_WIND\_MAX

**Default:** 14 **Max:** -1 (off)

By default, the DeltaQuad Evo can tolerate a maximum windspeed of 14 m/s. This limit can be disabled if a mission must be completed regardless of wind conditions.

* COM\_WIND\_MAX\_ACT&#x20;

**Default**: Return **Optional**: Warning

The maximum windspeed action can be changed to a warning. By default, the vehicle will return if the windspeed exceeds the tolerance limits.

If arming without GPS is not possible, set the following parameter to **Allow arming without GPS**.

* COM\_ARM\_WO\_GPS

The warranty will be void if any incident occurs as a result of changes made to the parameters.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.deltaquad.com/tac/flight/advanced-flight.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
